This one is a lovely, easy read. But don't expect it to tell you J Lo's story. It does feature some, let's say, episodes of her life, but it lacks the depth, which, for me, is the main attraction in any autobiography."True Love" focuses on Jennifer Lopez's songs; she writes about what inspired each song,...

“Lord Have Mercy” by H. M. Mills
What an amazing adventure it has been exploring her dual nature together with Mercy!“Lord Have Mercy” by H.M. Mills is a book that has everything to make you turn the pages. Iconic characters like angels, demons, and Lucifer himself open up from the angles you’ve never imagined before. My favourite characters in the book are... Continue Reading →
“Trail Markers” by Cym Aros
Usually, I have a lot to say, especially about books. But with “Trail Markers” by Cym Aros, I’m at a loss where to start. I’m overwhelmed by the depth of the characters, the extent of human cruelty, and the author’s knowledge of human nature.Let me say that I’ve never been a fan of westerns. Those... Continue Reading →
“North and South” by Elizabeth Gaskell
Is there a perfect place in the world? That is the main question, in my opinion, Elizabeth Gaskell puts in front of the readers in her novel “North and South”. There are so many layers to this book that I won’t even attempt to describe them all in a short review. The book resonated with... Continue Reading →
“Hillbilly Elegy” by J. D. Vance
An amazingly sincere and personal book. It tells a story of one - rather extended, though! - family, but also manages to illustrate the story of the whole region.For me, as for someone, who lives on the other side of the planet, the most fascinating in this book was finding a lot of similarities with...

“A Consuming Love” by Kelly Miller
What an absolutely charming book! I finished reading it a few days ago, but a dreamy smile still appears on my face whenever I think about it.To be honest, I was a little cautious to read one of my favourite book’s variations. I had a rather disappointing experience with reading “Sense and Sensibility” modern adaptation... Continue Reading →
“The Angel and The Wolf” by R.A. Hutchins
This is the second book I’ve read by this author. And I can tell you with absolute certainty that I will read more. R.A. Hutchins manages to catch the most beautiful things in human nature, while she does see and accept that life can be cruel and unfair to the best of us. “The Angel... Continue Reading →
“The Younglings: Shadows and Magic” by Helena M. Craggs
The first thing that came into my mind when I sat down to write this review was: what a cosy book! Well, yes, I know it would sound strange if you read the description of “The Younglings: Shadows and Magic” by Helena M. Craggs, since it says: demons, vampires, and also mentions something about stabbing... Continue Reading →
“Kellcey” by Kacey Kells
“Kellcey” by Kacey Kells is a story that often is left untold. It felt like reading a diary. And this narrative style made the story even more heartbreaking. Kacey Kells tells about her almost perfect “before” life with the ingenuousness of youth. Her thoughts are so pure that you feel helpless fury that this purity... Continue Reading →
“Happy to Have Nothing” by Stuart Hobrow
They say that hardships make us stronger. After losing her mother, Mel would laugh in your face if you tried to comfort her with these words of general wisdom. The truth is that every person deals with hardships and grief in their own way, and not always even those who love us can find the... Continue Reading →
